Mainly deskbound today, but wandered out to get some provisions. This might be a place of future interest... when a house changes hands, it seems to be de rigueur now to strip out everything and replace it with new. I…

Rather a lazy, and thankfully uneventful, day. A picture of one of my favourite buildings.

The day dawned with that wonderful wintery light, so young James and I thought we would spend the morning snapping. Unfortunately, owing to the inordinate amount of rain, the common is like a mud-bath. Reversing the Bongo, I caught the…

This will only mean anything to friends and family! But the elderly relative is not losing his marbles and getting his dates muddled.

Two of my favourite things in one place - an abandoned coffee cup and an out of place supermarket trolley. The interesting question about the trolley is: "How did it get there?". There are Tesco stores on virtually every street…

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the end of the world was supposed to end on the 12th day of the 12th month of 2012 .... well, it hasn't yet - although using GMT, there is still another hour…

A bejewelled goat's skull, that's what! Just flaneuring my way past Harrods when I did a double take at this extraordinary window display. Now this is Harrods and so this ain't going to be cheap,but what do you say when…

Oh how I wish this had been my lunch, but much as I love them, that love is not reciprocated. I watched in envy as my lunch companion enjoyed them. Spent the morning getting nowhere with the Post Office over…

A Sunday Shoot in Bath for the last day of the Christmas market and the place was heaving, but there were some good snapping opportunities!

More vapour trails I'm afraid, but this month we are seeing the most amazing skies. We've had some lovely clear nights recently and I'm seriously thinking about having a go at astro-photography. The problem is clear winter nights usually mean…

Thomas Allen - before MisterMac thinks I've forgotten how to spell his name. I'm going through a bit of a Thomas Allen phase at the moment. I fell in love with his Don Giovanni about 30 years ago and that…

No, not the drugs and rock'n'roll variety, but the Wadworth's variety - at least that was what 6X used to be called. I am not a beer drinker, as a rule, but there is something about 6X that makes it…

Well you learn something new everyday and today I learned that there were two vegetables that I have never heard of. The first is tardivo - apparently some kind of radicchio, although it looked like a sea-creature that had escaped…

The most fabulous light today and I just wish I'd had more time to be out and about snapping. Tuesday is rubbish collection day and so there are always some interesting subjects around. I don't want to be labelled as…

Well, the Porsche itself isn't sparkly, but its reflection is definitely sequinned. Having heard that the forecast for the day was grotty and grey, I decided to have my daily flaneur somewhat earlier than usual. I need to start a…

Well this is not my best picture of the day (that was a rather nice evening shot of Baker and Spice) but this is the one by which I want to remember the day. It was the first London event…

Always on the lookout for reflections of Chelsea, I was taken by the roses reflected in this massive silver bauble in a shop window along the Fulham Road. The light first thing was perfect - that sort of wintery, Turneresque…

As I ambled down to Chelsea Green, my nostrils were assaulted by the smell of garlic wafting through the air. The local greengrocer shop had teamed up with the vintners to provide garlic mushrooms with crusty bread, washed down with…

I have a lot of sympathies with people who can't park because I am totally and utterly rubbish at it, as anyone who has been in the car with me will testify. However, I have no sympathies with dickheads that…
